If your ancestor's name
on our results page does not contain a link to your pedigree, it is either
because we have not received pedigree information from you, or we did not
recognize it as yours. It is essential for us to have at least the name of
a Thompson ancestor. To submit your pedigree, you don't have to know
everything. Just list as much about each generation as you can fit on one line.
(We won't panic if it's longer than one line!) Here is the example of my

who submitted it:

The reason we all joined the Thompson DNA Project was to learn more about
Thompson ancestry. We can't do this without our ancestors' names. Please submit
your pedigree by email to one of the project administrators or click on the link
at the top of the Patriarchs page. We will add your pedigree to the Patriarchs
page and link it to your ancestor's name on the Results page. The pedigrees will
help us all determine if, when, and where we have common ancestry.
